Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1/2 cup vinegar **
1 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. fresh ground pepper
1 tsp. fresh thyme *
1 tsp. fresh tarragon **
1 tsp. fresh oregano *
8 leaves of fresh basil chopped
1 pkg. sweet-n-low
1/2 tsp. Tabasco sauce
1 large clove garlic -- finely chopped
4 green onions -- including tops
chopped
2/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
Combine all ingredients except for the olive oil in a medium sized bowl. Whisk
briefly to combine. Add the extra virgin olive oil and whisk until incorporat
ed. This is an excellent dressing for pasta salads and also superior as a marin
ade for tomatoes and other fresh vegetables. The mild flavor of the fresh herb
s enhances the natural flavors of the ingredients, without overpowering the mor
e delicate components. Best made up fresh daily. The delicate oils of the her
bs deteriorate when stored for any length of time.
Note: Best when fresh herbs are used!!
Makes 1 1/4 cups.
